German Says Berlin
Due For More Riots
"When conditions don’t change
in Eastern Berlin there’ll be an
other uprising. I don’t know when
it will come, but the mood of the
people is desperate; they'll revolt
until they’re free.”
That's the idea of Lothar Loewe,
German exchange student who,
Islanders Topic
Of Second Talk
H. G. Barnett, professor of an
thropology, will present the sec
ond browsing room lecture of the
year tonight at 7:30 when he dis
cusses "The Micronesians—Our
Responsibility.”
The lecture will be illustrated
with slides taken recently while
Barnett was head of a team of
anthropologists in the Pacific.
He will discuss the people of the
teiritory governed by the United
States under a trusteeship from
the -United Nations, including the
Caroline, Mariana, and Marshall
Islands. The speaker worked with
the Trust Territory administra
tion, which was concerned with
the health, education, economy
and promotion of self-government
for the people.
Burnett also spent a year in
the Palau Islands making an an
thropological study while he was
with the United States Navy. He
also has done field work with the
Indians in Oregon, Washington,
British Columbia and New Mexico.
Ticket Salesmen
Report In Today
All University theater season
ticket salesmen are to have their
receipt books and money in to the
box office by 5 p.m. today, ac
cording to Ken Olsen, ticket man
ager.
The box office will be open from
1 to 5 p.m. and materials may be
turned in between those hours. Re
newed season tickets have already
been processed, but will not be
mailed until the new orders have
been received and processed, Ol
sen said.
with Jurgen Dobberke, another
newspaperman from Berlin, spoke
at the first meeting of the Univer
sity Press club Tuesday night.
Dobberke did not share his col
league’s optimism. He fears an
other “revolution—it was much
too widespread and spontaneous
to be a mere revolt,” can not hap
pen for many years because of in
creased police activity in Berlin.
Both men covered the June 16
riots in East Berlin and both risk
ed death or captivity by crossing
the border. Loewe, who entered
the Russian sector in a red MG
sports car with American Press
Officer Bob Ball, was later called
by a Communist Berlin paper
"chief gangster” and accused of
being one of the American agents
directing the riots.
A photographer, Dobberke took
his camera, under his coat, with;
him into the Eastern sector. He'
crossed the border the first time
by subway, but by June 17 all;
transportation was stopped be
tween the two sectors and he was
forced to avoid the People's Po
lice on foot.
“It seems possible to me that
the original strike in Berlin was
allowed to prove that free strikes
are possible under Soviet control,”
Loewe said.
He added that during the first
day of the uprisings he saw
Soviet officials in civilian clothes
among the demonstrators. Use of
force at first could have stopped
the riots, be commented.
Dobberke said that at first the
Russian soldiers did not shoot
into the crowds, just over their
heads. Later more violence oc
curred and shots were fired. He
saw a worker run down by a “tank
made in Siberia.”
Most of the tank commanders
had “very astonished expressions”
as they viewed the uprisings. Such
a thing was believed “impossible”
behind the iron curtain.
The Berlin journalists agreed
that a government like that of
East Berlin could not survive
without these Siberian tanks.
Loewe concluded that conditions
are more favorable for future up
risings in East Berlin than in
other iron curtain areas because
of its proximity to the Western
section. East Berliners can see
what goes on across the border.

PLANTS TO PIASTM
Relics Want Room
by Anne Ritchey
Emerald Feature Editor
One of the campus interest
points or eyesores, depending on
the way a student looked at it,
was the Willamette meteorite,
which was formerly displayed so
prominently on the porch of Mc
: Clure hall.
McClure hall was razed this
summer to make room for the
school of journalism building now
• under construction between
Friendly hall and the school of
architecture. With the old build
ing disappeared the meteorite.
Where is the meteorite? The
plaster replica of the famous Wil
lamette meteorite is now being
stored in a shop of the physical
plant, according to I. I. Wright,
physical plant head.
New Museum Planned
Future plans for the huge piece
involve many other specimens on
campus which are also museum
items. According to tentative
i plans a new inclusive museum
1 will be built within the next few
years.
In the present architecture an
i
nex, known to the staff of the art
school as the ‘‘east wing,” is hous
ed the famous University herbar
ium. As they stand now, the plans
are to combine the present Con
don hall geology museum with
this and to display the Willamette
meteorite there.
The herbarium, begun in 1908
at the University, includes repre
sentative flora and fauna from all
over the United States, but partic
ularly from the Northwest and the
state of Oregon. The Howell Col
lection, a complete study in Ore
gon's flora and fauna, is also to
be found there, as are many other
private collections which have
been donated to the University for
display.
Collection Moved
Formerly housed in Condon hall
also, this collection was moved to
the architecture annex in the
spring of 1951, according to Sid
ney Little, dean of the art and
architecture school.
The present Condon hall geol
ogy museum, which is to be moved
to the annex according to plans, is
a valuable collection of geological
specimens. It includes private
items owned by Thomas Condon,
pioneer geologist of Oregon and
one of the University’s original
faculty members and founders.
Quonsets To Go
According to Little, who is
chairman of a standing faculty
committee which plans changes
such as these on campus, the pro
posed moves will be submitted at
the next meeting of the state leg
islature, where they will “receive
number one priority.”
Other plans of the committee,
include complete removal of quon
set huts from use at the Univer
sity, Little said. “The journalism
school will be the last to occupy
the huts on this campus,” he said.
Following completion of the new
Journalism building they will be
dismanteled and taken to the
physical plant for storage use.”
Other members of the standing
planning committee are J. O.
Lindstrom, University business
manager, Wright, and the future
university president, for whom the
group will serve as an advisory
council.

mittees on publicity, promotion,
finance, noise parade, luncheon,
game entertainment, traditions,
bonfire, radio promotion, dance,
bonfire rally, queen selection, var
iety show, hospitality, theme se
lection, and sign contest. A gen
eral secretary for the event is
also needed. Committee chairmen
will be announced Monday.
Committee work for the two
events will not conflict, since the
Whiskerino is Oct. 24, nearly a
month before the Sept. 20-21
Homecoming weekend.
Counseling Center
Adds Personnel
Three new counselors have been
added to the staff of the Univer
sity Counseling center in order to
extend its services.
Working on a part-time basis
from the department of psychol
ogy. they are John Pierce-Jones,
instructor in education and psy
chology; Norman Sundberg, as
sistant professor of psychology,
and Leona Taylor, associate pro*
fessor of psychology.
Both vocational and personal
problems are dealt with at the
center, with any person desiring
counseling asked to make an ap
pointment for an initial interview.
In vocational counseling, testing
and discussions of the results of
the tests will be included, for
which a nominal fee is charged.
Unless tests are involved in per
sonal counseling, there is no
charge to students for this service,
according to J. Spencer Carlson,
director of the center.
Located in Emerald hall, 201,
the center is open from 8 a.m.
to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday,
and from 8 a.m. to 12 noon on Sat

dent is being asked to contribute
a minimum of 25 cents to make
up the *500 campus goal, she said.
Living organizations will be con
tacted by representatives and off
campus students may contribute
through the Community Cheat
boxes in the Co-op and Student
Union, Miss Wick added.

are limited to four per year with'
the Community Chest being the1
only drive fall term. Other offi
cial campus drives are the Red*
Cross, winter term, and the Worlds
Student Service Fund collection,

March of Dimes is made at one
basketball game during the year.
Last fall term, the ASUO sen
ate appointed a committee head
ed by John Talbot, campus pub
lic relations chairman, to inves
tigate the possibility of uniting
the. drives into a "campus chest,"
similar to the united drives held
in many large cities throughout
the country. The commmittee wa»
also to evaluate campus chests'
then in effect on other college
, campuses.
Findings of the committee,
which were accepted by the sen
ate, indicated that there was no
need to unify charity drives on.
the Oregon campus and that inde
pendent drives here were more
successful than unified drives on
other campuses. The report furth
er noted that not all of the campus
chest systems had proven success
ful.
